Firmware Update 32PFL9705H12

I own this new TV a week. Due to problems with S-video I was advised by Philips to update my Firmware. I tried it wireless, the TV gave a message that softwate was up to date. On the Support section of my TV was an anouncement of new Firmware (32pfl9705h_12_fus_nld.zip Versie: 000.140.011.000, Zip-bestand, 70.11 MB, Publicatiedatum: 2010-10-05).

I put it on an USB device and installation went flawless. Unfortunately, the widgets are gone.

On this Forum I noticed there is an update for the 5000 series..... I am afraid that this update was installed...

Contacted Philips Consumer Support: it IS the right Firmware update, the widgets have simply been removed.
But now there might be another issue: PICTURE QUALITY.
I have the feeling that after the update it is less than before. Especially Digital TV from UPC (Scart), but also DVD's from my BDP7500 (newest firmware 1.09, HDMI) and maybe even Blu-Ray disc's from the same device.

Well, I just have this TV, and did not know the widgets were not functioning. I just noticed they were gone, that's it.
The picture quality is OK, must have been the daylight and me seeing things that weren't there.

Just one thing left: S-video through scart-adapter: either my scart-adapter is broken or the TV doesn't support it.

There are scart adaptors with “video-out” and “video-in”. I suppose you have the “video-out” adaptor, you need the “video-in” adaptor. There are also adaptors with a switch (In-out)
If you want to go for picture quality than use HDMI. The stuff you want to connect without digital connection is outdated.
